About the Pavlova Dessert

Honestly, every restaurant in the world that has ever baked Pavlova can tell its favourite story. Anyway, one thing is certain: this marvelous cake was named after the greatest Russian ballerina perhaps of all time who was on tour in Australia and New Zealand in 1926. In 1997, Professor Helen M. Leach even wrote a book telling this diverse and almost nail-biting detective story “The pavlova cake: the evolution of a national dish”. There is a nice article about it on the Wiki website.
